Never used a Chubby 3, but the 2 was always the wrong size for me,,,almost got cramps in my fingers using it...

Too big or too small?

Chubby 2 is too small for me...but I do have large hands...

I found Chubby 2 too stocky but the Epsilon Chubby 3 handle which is very close to Simpson Chubby 3 is a better grip but still a bit short for my liking.

Depends if you grip it like a paint brush or pork chop?

Here are the dimensions from https://www.maguiresbarbershop.co.uk/simpsons-chubby-3-best-badger-shaving-brush/

Cheers. So it’s only the Base Diameter that I need now.
